state, plane, do, conclude - Answer>> steps to organize a stat problem
descriptive stat - Answer>> summarizes data (to get an average)
influential stat - Answer>> generalizes from sample (to make an assumption)
univariate (bivariate) - Answer>> data that collects one (or two) variables
categorical - Answer>> qualitative
numerical - Answer>> quantitative
continuous - Answer>> type of numerical data that measures time, height, number line values, etc.
discrete - Answer>> type of numerical data that measures countable variables
bar chart - Answer>> type of relative frequency distribution chart used with categorical data dot plot - Answer>> rudimentary histogram used with numerical data
bar chart, pie chart, relative porportion - Answer>> types of charts used with *categorical data* and what you must discuss with them
